    Hi @debdeb13, I'm sorry this is causing you worry. I hope it goes okay on Thursday. A tribunal will go through the different components of PIP and will ask you questions. If you have a copy of your form it might be good to have that to refer back to.

    Please do let us know how you get on. :)

    Hi @debdeb13 Fingers crossed for your appeal

    Have a good look through the bundle and go through and highlight each descriptor you think you should have scored points for and the give examples of what happens when you try and do the task eg what happens when you try and do it, can you do it , if you need support or use an aid, if you cant do it why cant you do it.

    Can you do the task safely and repeatedly, would you put yourself at risk if you did the task

    On the call as they ask you the questions go through your list and at the end they will ask if you want to add anything you can then add anything that has been missed

    It may last a while so have a drink at the ready and phone charged, and if somebody can be there with youn they can take notes and prompt you

    Good luck let us know how it goes
